Explanation: Electromagnetic separation is used to concentrate an ore when either the particles of the ore or the impurities present in it are magnetic in nature. Chromite, magnetite and pyrolusite have magnetic nature and are separated from their non-magnetic gangue particles using this method.
Gravity separation is traditionally employed depending on the liberation particle size in order to obtain a saleable chromite concentrate with at least Cr2O3 content of 44% and Cr/Fe ratio of 2.20. Chromite occurs generally with olivine and serpentine. Chromite can be also found with magnetite with a less frequency.

Magnetic separation techniques may be useful after reduction for the beneficiation of low grade chromite ore. The sample collected from the sukinda mines is characterized by XRD which shows predominant phases like maghemite, chromite, silica, magnesia and alumina.
The medium ore of the dense media separator is crushed to 10-0mm and then merged with the 10-0mm grade of raw ore for separation. The grades of 10-3mm and 3-0mm are sent to the jigging process.
chromium. chromium processing, preparation of the ore for use in various products. Chromium (Cr) is a brilliant, hard, refractory metal that melts at 1,857 °C (3,375 °F) and boils at 2,672 °C (4,842 °F). In the pure state it is resistant to ordinary corrosion, resulting in its application as an electroplated protective coating for other metals.

Chrome ore flotation Generally, when the gravity separation and magnetic separation fail, flotation offers an alternative technique to concentrate the fine-grained and ultra-fine-grained chromite rocks and fine-grained chromite tailings which require fine grinding for liberation. But grinding will produce a large amount of ore slime.
The raw chrome ore is the tailings after floating separation of platinum and palladium, and the grade of Cr2O3 is relatively high. 【X-ray diffraction analysis】 The main mineral ores in the chrome sample are chromite, enstatite, anorthite, hopfnerite, diopside, albite, biotite, etc.. 【Physical analysis】 The metallic minerals in the chrome samples …
With the limited reserve of high-grade chromite ore (Cr 2 O 3 around 48%), it has become important to use the medium and low-grade chromite ores to meet the demand. The low-grade chromite ores are mostly …
3.1 Mining and beneficiation of chromite ore Run-of-mine (ROM) chromite (mined ore, prior to beneficiation) is usually beneficiated with relatively simple processes. The most commonly applied processes include primary and secondary crushing, screening, milling, dense media separation and gravity separation methods ( Murthy et al., 2011 ).
1. Introduction. The natural mineral chromite is widely utilized by high-lime roasting technique to obtain chromate products due to the needs of leather, catalysis, metallurgy and other industries, in which a large amount of chromite ore processing residue (COPR) is produced (Dermatas et al., 2006; He and Traina, 2005).A small …
The speciation and distribution of Cr(VI) in the solid phase was investigated for two types of chromite ore processing residue (COPR) found at two deposition sites in the United States: gray-black (GB) granular and hard brown (HB) cemented COPR. COPR chemistry and mineralogy were investigated using micro-X-ray absorption spectroscopy and micro …
Alteration of crystalline structure and magnetic property of these minerals enables separation of low-grade ore by using magnetic separation. It is found that low-grade ferruginous chromite ore can be upgraded by reduction roasting, and 61.2% Cr 2 O 3 was recovered with a chromium-to-iron ratio of 1.93 from a feed chromium-to-iron ratio …
